Invincible!

Chapter 45 Recruitment
enthusiasm.

As soon as Li Xian, Zhou Juechen, and the others arrived at the foot of Wendao Mountain, they immediately felt the heartfelt enthusiasm of the representatives of these forces.

Taixu Sword Palace, Shengwu Tower, Tianbao Pavilion, and Canglang Sword Sect—all these well-informed forces sent people over.

As for the other forces...

We are also paying attention to Li Xian.

However, their actions and intelligence were not as timely as those of the other companies.

However, whenever Li Xian stays in the small town at the foot of Wendao Mountain tonight, his doorstep will be overwhelmed with visitors.

After all, Li Xian has accepted funding from the Zhou family and the Guangyuan Sword Saint so far.

Zhou family?

It's just a local family.

If it weren't for Zhou Juechen's enlightenment of the unified primordial chaos and his breakthrough to the state of perfect perfection, many people would not have remembered this prefecture-level family at all.

And the Sword Saint of Guangyuan...

His investments have deterred some smaller players.

However, forces that considered themselves to be of considerable size were still willing to gamble on their luck.

What if someone takes a liking to you?
……

At the foot of the mountain, in a pavilion specifically for receiving distinguished guests.

Li Xian, Zhou Juechen, and representatives of the four major forces took their seats.

In such situations, let alone Hongyu and the others, even someone like Zhou Juechen was just a guest.

At this moment, looking at Li Xian, even though he had received news of Li Xian being ranked ninth on the Hidden Dragon List shortly after setting off, he was still deeply shaken.

"The Hidden Dragon List."

When Li Xian killed Blood Eagle and Zhang Shuheng, he guessed that with this strength, he would definitely enter the Hidden Dragon List, but he never expected that his ranking would be so high.

Straight into the top ten!

The key point is that he's only twenty-two years old!
In terms of age, he was much younger than Princess Yan Yu, who was twenty-seven, and Jian Zi Xiang Yangsheng, who was twenty-nine.

Even if they fail to leap over the dragon gate this time, there is still hope for the next time.

He was only in the top ten of the Hidden Dragon List this year, what about next year?

Top five? Top three?
and even……

Number one on the Hidden Dragon List!

This is the real reason why Taixu Sword Palace, Tianbao Pavilion, and Shengwu Tower all sent representatives to recruit him.

"People choose me, and I choose people in return..."

Zhou Juechen recalled Li Xian's somewhat arrogant words on Canglang Mountain not long ago.

At that time, even the mere attention from the Sword Saint of Guangyuan was like a towering mountain or an insurmountable barrier to Zhou Juechen.

But now...

Long Yu, Li Qiong, and Xiao Ruqing may not be as strong as Guangyuan Sword Saint, but the resources and energy they can leverage, as well as the identities they represent, are all superior to Guangyuan Sword Saint.
And now, these people are actually taking the initiative to come to him and discuss terms.

As Zhou Juechen sighed, Li Qiong from the Taixu Sword Palace said, "Let me speak first."

For some reason, Long Yu and Xiao Ruqing did not deny it. "Li Qianlong, we both have the surname Li, and perhaps we were from the same family five hundred years ago. This is fate. In this year's Dragon Gate Leap, Yan Yu, who has cultivated true qi, and Xiang Yangsheng from my Taixu Sword Palace will definitely take one spot. But I think your potential is no less than Xiang Yangsheng's. Therefore, as long as Li Qianlong is willing to join the Taixu Sword Palace, my Taixu Sword Palace is willing to give you the same treatment as Xiang Yangsheng as a sword disciple."

Li Qiong said frankly, "In your cultivation, you can not only directly consult with Palace Master Li Feng of the Taixu Sword Palace, who is at the Innate Realm, but the Taixu Sword Palace will also send a True Qi Realm elder to protect you! In addition, the Taixu Sword Palace's most treasured classic, the Thirteen Swords of the Void, can be directly bestowed upon you, and you can ask for Blood Spirit Powder at will. Even the Concentrating Incense, which is beneficial to the unity of spirit and qi, will be provided by the Taixu Sword Palace three sticks per month to help you cultivate true qi as soon as possible."

Upon hearing Li Qiong's words, Long Yu, who was standing to the side, was also about to speak up and present Tianbao Pavilion's terms.

At this moment, Li Xian spoke first: "Everyone, there are only ten days left to leap over the dragon gate, and I will definitely participate in this grand event of molting from a snake to a dragon, and fight hard to seize the opportunity to see that brand new world."

He calmly said, "If your conditions are that I join your respective factions, then I think there's no need to say anything more."

After hearing this, the group exchanged glances.

After a moment, Li Qiong said, "This time, only five Dragon Gate Tokens will be leaked. Yan Yu of the Yan family and Xiang Yangsheng, the swordsman of my Taixu Sword Palace, have cultivated true qi far superior to those of those who have achieved complete mastery of qi. They will definitely occupy one of the spots. The remaining three will be decided among the thirty of you who have achieved complete mastery of qi, as well as the four Blood Exchange and Marrow Cleansing Realm experts who have defeated those who have achieved complete mastery of qi..."

He paused for a moment: "As an organization that specializes in selecting Daoist and Immortal talents, the Rising Dragon Pavilion possesses many rare items and magical artifacts, and its intelligence capabilities are beyond doubt. Even the Yan family cannot compare with it. Since he has listed Li Qianlong as the ninth, it proves that any one of the six people ranked ahead of you has a better chance of winning the Dragon Gate Token than you."

Long Yu, Xiao Ruqing, and Ren Qingshan, who was with Young Master Yuan, all nodded in agreement.

"To avoid collusion, the methods for each Dragon Gate Leap are different, but they are nothing more than a few categories such as martial arts competition, treasure hunting, extermination of evil spirits, and beast hunting, testing realm, luck, combat experience, and agility... Among all categories, strength is the most important."

Long Yu added a sentence.

The implication is...

In terms of pure strength, Li Xian has little chance against Qi Liang, Yue Longsha, Su Jianxing, and others.

The skill is one level higher, so higher it's boundless.

"Qi Liang is the current imperial son-in-law, with the Yan family behind him. Yue Long Sha is the personal disciple of Wei Qingqing, the Fist Saint of Shengwu Tower. Although Su Jianxing is not from any of our families, he also received the inheritance of Mo Daoren, the innate master from a hundred years ago."

Li Qiong said earnestly, "Each of these people has mastered top-notch swordsmanship, fist techniques, and secret arts, and their combat power is astonishing. You, who have only recently advanced to the state of perfect perfection, are no match for these people who have inherited amazing skills and have mastered the qi and blood of the perfect perfection realm. Rather than that, you should make full preparations, accumulate strength, and wait for five years to rise to the top in one step."

Li Xian listened to the words of this expert from the Taixu Sword Palace...

It sounded very familiar.

He didn't read many books.

But in my previous life, in that information-saturated world, I was familiar with everything and heard a lot of news.

what is this?
Is it a suppression of confidence?
To subdue you, first diminish your value as much as possible?
This attitude...

At that moment, he was too lazy to waste time and said directly, "I will definitely not miss this opportunity to leap over the Dragon Gate. There are still about ten days before the Dragon Gate is officially opened. If I have enough Blood Nourishing Pills in these ten days, I may be able to control my Qi and Blood. Therefore, if you can donate three or five Blood Nourishing Pills, I will definitely reward you handsomely afterwards."

"Blood-Nourishing Pill?"

Li Qiong, Long Yu, and Xiao Ruqing exchanged glances.

For cultivators who have entered the Dao, the Blood Nourishing Pill is just the most ordinary pill, but it still needs to be refined with magical power to be made.

Any medicine that involves the "path to enlightenment" is considered a panacea for martial artists.

Even a single one could stir up bloodshed in a prefecture or even a state.

If Li Xianyuan were to join their respective factions, even if the Blood Nourishing Pill was precious, they could still find it for him.

But now Li Xian has made it clear that he wants to set his sights on leaping over the dragon gate...

Long Yu from Tianbao Pavilion was the first to speak: "It's not difficult for Li Qianlong to obtain the Blood Nourishing Pill, but the distribution of such pills will take some time..."

Just then, a voice came from outside.

"Li Qianlong, my landlord has something to give you."
